  The theme of the  morning will be:    How does God call me by my name, how will I respond?

Celebrating 800 years of St Francis’ Canticle of the Creatures

In 1255, St Francis of Assisi composed his “Canticle of the Creatures”, one of the great hymns to come down to us from medieval times.

This reflection day celebrates the Canticles remarkable mystical insights concerning God’s creation, and its ecological sensibilities so relevant to today.

The world is in crisis, many of the causes of which are fundamentally spiritual.
What we see and hear does not provide a coherent inspiring life-giving story inviting us into deeper relationships with God, others and the natural world.

Drawing on the wisdom of our Christian tradition expressed in the work of Teilhard de Chardin, Hildegard of Bingen, Beatrice Bruteau, Elizabeth Johnson and others, John Auer will explore an exciting and inspiring new story – a story expressive of God’s presence in the universe as the creative, transformative, empowering energy of Love.

Join the Eco-spirituality group and Ignatian Spirituality WA for a gentle contemplative walk in Bold Park. From 8:45 for 9am start till 11:30am. Starting at the Camel Lake Carpark, two walks will be offered - a 2km loop walk and a 3.5km walk. The 2km walk has a gentle slope for about 300m but otherwise is fairly flat. The 3.5km walk has some steeper sections. The surface of the path is a limestone base which is generally well maintained.

He is also involved in the synodal renewal process in the Catholic Church and served as an expert adviser to the 16th Synod of Bishops 2021-2024 appointed by Pope Francis. The title of this presentation is: “Changing to be Faithful: why synodality is the only way forward for the Church “which is the subject of Eamonn’ next book to be published in August 2025.

How could silence possibly create community? What do we mean by Community?

We’ll explore these questions especially this seemingly paradoxical claim by John Main OSB to see why this connection between silence and community is so important to us as humans as well as for the future of our home - Planet Earth.

Ignatian spirituality WA and Christian Life Community WA invite you to an Annual tree Planting Day at Gabbiljee Reserve in Bullcreek.

Join the Eco-spirituality group and Ignatian Spirituality WA for a silent reflective walk in Kings Park. There will be 2 options for walking: one easier and the other more challenging. However, the emphasis is always on silence and contemplative walking.

The world is in crisis, many of the causes of which are fundamentally spiritual.  What we see and hear does not provide a coherent inspiring life-giving story inviting us into deeper relationships with God, others and the natural world.  We need a new story.

Ignatian Spirituality and Christian Life Community WA offer an ignatian reflective walk in nature at Perry Lakes Reserve in Mt Claremont for the Season of Creation. This will take place on Sunday October 13th 2024 from 10-12pm.

Join the eco-spirituality group on another Ignatian reflective walk this time at the beautiful and easily accessible Kent St Weir in Cannington. this easy, flat 4km walk will be done with some time for prayer, reflection and silent walking.

Come on an Ignatian Reflection walk on the Banks of the Canning River at Salter Point. Slow walking, Pausing, Reflecting and sharing are all part of this time.

How does Ignatian Spirituality, with its gifts of discernment and deep listening, inform our understanding of Synodality - walking together - a new model for Church?

Dr Sandie Cornish is well placed and informed and will help us navigate some of the issues and language around Synodality and explain what Pope Francis is seeking to introduce into the way of being Church in the future.

Start 2023 with clarity with the spiritual exercises of St. Ignatius to work through a 30-week period at any time that suits you.

For those people who are focused on prayer and who desire to deepen their relationship with God, one way of making the Exercises is through the 19th Annotation, also known as The Retreat in Daily Life.

One of the advantages of the Retreat in Daily Life is that the person is able to live and work in their own environment and yet still pray and make the Retreat over a period of approximately 30+ weeks.
